Cane View/Mocha residents whose homes were demolished by the government to make way for a road have told their lawyers to start legal proceedings after government failed to signal interest in mediation.
Lawyers for the affected residents had set February 15 as the deadline for the government to reply to their request for mediation. That deadline expired without any response from the government, a release yesterday from the lawyers said, “We have strengthened capacity for aggressive representation and have started deploying our litigation and conflict resolution strategies” said New York-based Attorney at Law Dr. Vivian Williams who along with Attorney Lyndon Amsterdam, wrote the government on February 8,2023.
